Welcome to beautiful Whistler, BC—a world-famous winter ski destination and a summer playground filled with biking trails, lakes, forests, and fresh mountain air. And the best part? The vegan Whistler scene has grown so much in recent years.
When we first started visiting Whistler back in 2007, vegan food was… well, almost impossible to find. Today, things look very different. Even though there are still very few fully vegan restaurants, many cafés and eateries now offer creative plant-based meals that taste great after a day on the mountain.
This guide is updated regularly and organised by neighbourhood so you can quickly find food wherever you are — Creekside, Function Junction, Whistler Village, or Upper Village. Each listing includes a simple pointer and a link so you can find the location instantly.
If you spot anything missing, let us know in the comments — Whistler changes often, and we love keeping this resource fresh for you.
